Thread Name: BS: Where did ur name come from?
Subject: RE: BS: Where did ur name come from?
I don't know when Jack, (who is an old friend) changed his name. The story is really about when I changed MY name. AND IT WAS FOR THE SAME REASON THAT JACK CHANGED HIS. JUST ASK HIM. Let's see, 1946, I was 17 years old. I DISTINCTLY remember Jack getting raked over the coals at a meeting of club "Folksay" when he said he was thinking of changing his name, and why. THAT'S when I decided to change my name. It wasn't Gibson, it was Joey Gordon (?) and later on Gibson. Much later on. AND WHAT THE HELLS THE DIFFERENCE ANYWAY/ IT WAS 55 YEARS AGO. THAT'S PROBABLY A LONGER TIME THAN YOU HAVE BEEN IN EXISTANCE.

Love and kisses

Joe.

If you read that statement again, you'll see that it doesn't state when we changed our respective names, it's about the time we DECIDED to.
